What are those coupal sections of durum looking like this year? Did you get the "good luck with harvesting" wishes relayed to you?

Its all unicorn! Wife thought it was a cheezy pickup line at 1st. Haha

Lol...belly laughed. I should have formally introduced myself and made my intentions a little clearer. She probably thought I was a crackpot...she may have thought right.

Good luck anyway....a real uneventful rain delay so far. Won't take much decent weather to get back at it here.

Made a fire guard around the yard with our heavy offset disk..it would only go down 2 inches..
So Oct 1st we need rain..

Rain will do less damage than a frost will by morning

frost advisories out for SW alberta... oil, pulse, and cereal crops likely not in for any trouble, but that could crimp their vegetables. With the rain though, we've had it once before where frost goggles were put on when everything was cured and going through a combine before a rain/frost event, but apparently the seed takes on moisture, uncures, then freezes in the swath. Go figure.

Forecast low of +2 here tonight. Have some late seeded lentils that might not like that all that much, but perhaps it would solve the green stool in the bottom of the crop,fowling up the sample issue? Doubt it. It'd likely just downgrade. Should have just taken the shit and ate the dark green immature.

Frost would be serious around here. Even though many have started combining and a lot of lentils are in the bin, there is lots of green wheat around and much green Canola - some needs a month yet. Our crops only got going in June, after the rain so 100 plus days starts June 7. No frost please!
